Not so much guesswork as demanding of insight. If you haven't got any insight into how the thing works in its usual application, then you are reduced to guesswork.

Or read the data sheet with some insight into what might normally be going on.

Even marketing clown don't write data sheets that lead a lot of customers to blow up a lot of parts.

Asking the application engineer what might happen is less expensive, but means deferring to their expertise (when they have some).

Not for grown-ups.

I feel your pain. Life's a *bitch* at mm wave. Am I allowed to say that any more? Oh well, tough - I just did.

If you want to *fully* characterize such devices, it will cost a small fortune. But depending on the application, you may have to lay out the bread, because as you've already said, there's a paucity of information in the typical datasheet when it comes to 'extreme' operating conditions.

Or expensive things that a crowd of other people have paid for, yes.

Calling Harvard University a "Far Left Institution" would definitely have been considered a sign of dementia for about the past 400 years, but it's also symptomatic of the decision of the populist New Right in America to consider just about anyone with higher than a 6th grade education its mortal enemy.

Anyone other than its leadership, who as usual consist of a large proportion Ivy-babies themselves "do as I say, not as I do"
